The daily school bus: Them damn monkeys!

 

Just as I fearfully speculated yesterday, in my flight to save my coffee from the school bus-load of monkeys chasing me, I did turn onto a very rough side road, too rough for a school bus to follow, but, sure enough, them damn monkeys had already set up an ambush for me.

I won't take the time to describe the bitter fight and flight that followed but I barely managed to escape with my coffee. Now I am on the run in my Ford Escape, furtively dashing here and there, trying to hide from all those monkeys who now prowl about in school buses, looking for me, determined to steal my coffee from me.

On a sidenote, yesterday I was so happy when it appeared Squarespace had helped me find a workaround solution to this awful problem their once functioning but now impossibly defective iPhone app has created for me. As is shown in previous posts, I did a test of their workaround solution and the test worked beautifully. But, shortly thereafter, still celebrating in elation, I tried to make my next regular, non-school bus post. Squarespace stripped the picture out of it. So I tried once again, using the workaround method I had been given. Again Squarespace stripped the picture right out of it.

So, after all this time and aggravation I have suffered because of the defect that has taken over the Squarespace iPhone app, and after thinking the problem had been allayed and I could now easily post both text and picture using the email method, I find I can't have any confidence it will work each time. I now resume my "Daily School Bus" protest of the fact that Squarespace is marketing such a defective product at my expense. I hope these daily reminders will prod them to fix the problem as soon as possible.

As the email workaround did succeed one time out of three yesterday I will use it make my first attempt to post this. We will see what happens.

Note: This time, the email workaround worked! The workaround now has a 50 percent success rate. Do I dare try again later with a non-protest post?
